| Video: The video is given in its original aspect ratio of 1.33:1 ratio full frame color. The picture quality varies. For the most part, the picture has a fairly clean and sharp image, with a minimal amount of grain and minor compression artifacts. Frequently during quick motion, the picture gets distorted. The problem is there are approximately two hours of video stored on single layered DVDs.
Audio: The audio track included in this release comes in the form of Korean 2.0 Dolby digital stereo. The sound quality is quite good. All spoken dialogue is audible and sounds somewhat flat, which is expected with a dialogue driven DVD release. As for music, it sounds very full and rich and adds a wonderful element that enriches the dramatic moments. The subtitles included are in the English and Chinese languages. The English subtitles are professionally done and are extremely easy to follow.
Extras: Love Letter is not supplemented with much in the ways of extras. They include a standard photo gallery, episode synopses, character introductions, and storyline overview. I recommended not looking at anything of this information (prior to watching the series), because the story from Love Letter will be much more exciting as new situations and relationships develop. Basically, the extras are really only good if you plan on watching the series over a long period of time. |
